  • 1 teaspoon yellow mustard

  • Salt and pepper to taste

Sandwich Ingredients
  • 12 slices whole wheat bread or other bread of your choice, I love Killer Dave's 21 Whole Grain Bread
  • toppings like lettuce, extra pickles, etc

Equipment

  • measuring spoon
  • Mixing bowls
  • Mixing spoons
  • Chef’s knife
  • Cutting board

Method
 

  1. Prepare the tofu. Gently press the tofu in a clean kitchen towel (or paper towels) to remove excess water. Divide the tofu in half, mashing half the tofu with a fork and cubing the other half. Place into a large mixing bowl and set aside.
  2. Mix the dressing. In a medium mixing bowl, combine the vegan mayo, pickle relish, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, yellow mustard, paprika, salt and pepper. Mix well and add to the bowl with the tofu.
  3. Chop the vegetables. Finely dice the celery, green onions, and fresh dill. Add to the mixing bowl.
  4. Mix and serve. Using a spatula, mix everything together. Give a taste and adjust for seasoning. This recipe is super flexible and can be adapted to your tastes easily. Serve immediately or chill in the fridge for a few hours before serving. Enjoy!

Notes

How to Store
Keep any leftovers in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 5 days. However, this egg salad tastes best in the first 3 days.
I don’t recommend freezing this recipe.
